RPS in Scotland

We support, promote and lead the pharmacy profession across all sectors of pharmacy in Scotland.

The RPS is a GB-wide organisation, but there are significant differences in policy in Scotland, Wales and England. That’s why Scotland has its own National Pharmacy Board and RPS Scotland team: to ensure we understand and support all our members and the wider profession in Scotland.
